Elitch Gardens announces reopening date for Twister III rollercoaster
Twister III is scheduled to open this weekend at Elitch Gardens. This is a renovated version of Twister II which was a recreation of Mr. Twister at the former site of the park (and also the inspiration for Twister at Knoebels).
Now we just need the Lakeside Cyclone!
Never really knew about that coaster but holy crap does it look amazing.... especially with those Vettel trains (even if they were rebuilt).

Same city, but different coaster. The coaster you linked Cyclone at Lakeside Amusement Park, which is a separate location from Elitch Gardens. I've had the chance to ride both Cyclone and Twister II, and I definitely preferred Cyclone. Not much airtime, but it has a few fun drops and some amazing laterals. Although the neighborhood isn't the nicest, the park itself is a very scenic location surrounded by a little lake and several vintage flatrides.
(Plus, Lakeside also features a rare Miler Manufacturing steel wild-mouse coaster from the 50s. It has some great little bunny hills that are absolutely insane with the ride's lack of restraints.)
